Aims

The aim of the module is to provide students with the appropriate level of marine engineering knowledge and expertise required of an effective member of a marine engineering design team.

Learning Outcomes

1.
Develop process and instrumentation diagrams.
2.
Critically analyse sound pressure levels in an enclosed space.
3.
Apply HAZOP to a complex scenario.
4.
Evaluate heat exchanger performance by the effectiveness-NTU method.

Module Content

Outline Syllabus:
Space engineering - to become aware of issues surrounding the layout of a machinery space taking account of items such as pipe routes, tankage, proximity to associated plant, maintenance space, access and safety etc. Detailed development of Piping and Instrumentation Diagrams (P&ID's). Number of Transfer Units (NTU) effectiveness method for evaluation of heat exchanger performance. Condition monitoring techniques including vibration analyses. Hazard and Operability Analysis (HAZOP) studies. Shafting alignment.
Module Overview:
The aim of the module is to provide you with the appropriate level of marine engineering knowledge and expertise required of an effective member of a marine engineering design team.
Additional Information:
The module is designed to provide the student with an in-depth grounding of the typical practices and procedures that they will encounter should they pursue a career in the marine engineering design environment. The module will also provide a good grounding for those students pursuing careers in other industries such as power generation and process engineering. This module includes content which relates to the following UN Sustainable Development Goals: SDG13 – This module considers how marine engineering designers strive to lower GHG emissions onboard. SDG14 – This module will consider how onboard systems should be designed, operated, and maintained in order to prevent ocean pollution.
